Tonight I replaced the User Profile page (the one you get when you click a username's link). The old version was built with blocks around tables, which I disliked. My new version is built with just tables, and I think it looks much nicer. You can see a screenshot of just the profile area (no surrounding blocks or header, but they are there on the real page) here (PNG format).

If you'd like this new look, you need to replace three files in your theme: profile.thtml, commentrow.thtml, and storyrow.thtml. The source for all three files is in the rest of this article...profile.thtml:
Text Formatted Code

Just replace these in your theme, and you should have the new look! Play around with the style sheets to get the customized view you wish to use... -rob.
